Confusion?

Image
'The eye in the sky' ... give me a break, NFL ...with all of your checks and balances...with all your striped peops, ah, refs, running around making sure the game is done 'right'...and you blow a call as easy as they come ...listen, league... you have instant replay, from a gazillion different angles...and you allow this to go on? ... Seattle vs LA Rams ... the Seahawk punter gets his punt blocked...he then chases down the ball, gets it...runs with it a bit, then kicks it again...?!...beyond the line of scrimmage ...clearly to everyone, but the refs and the replay dudes...apparently... I think they did not know the rule...ALL OF THEM! ...they huddled...talked to one another... 'blind leading the blind?' ... 'a trump staff meeting?' ...'I did not have sex with that woman'...oops, wrong add on... their consensus? ... no harm, no foul, no nuttin'...play on ... Reading the book 'Peril' . .. by Bob Woodward and Jim Acosta…(Bob Costa!) . ...

A Social Media Influencer?

Image
This title, may be the latest name for a person's job...wait, profession?...do you have to get paid to be a SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCER? ... some one said it, wrote it, or was introduced as...this...a SI ...man, I thought that stood for Sports Illustrated... does the Horse qualify? ... I talk...you listen...you comment...you query...you agree...you disagree...you laugh...or you yawn ...I mean, what else could this writer be?... The state of Cali has a new law in the books ...I kid you not... it is illegal to secretly remove a condom during sexual intercourse ... "I did not have that with that woman" ...or as the latest outcry of the Jax HC Urban Meyers, as he danced (?) with another wurman, not his, mind you...but his present wife responded "we are all sinners" ...there you go...was there a condom involved?...this is what the state of Cali wants to know...imagine that court case...back to the law, who secretly removed it?... What a night for busted fingers ...or dis...

Bums Get it Done

Image
Well, I lead with the AL yesterday , so I gotta go with the NL today ...in dramatic fashion, the LA Dodgers (alias Bums) won their 'one and done' game vs the Cards...helped in cause by two of their guys who have struggled the MOST this past month or so...weird game, this wild card thang...ask Saint Looey if they like it...regardless, it is what it is...and the Bums now take on the SF Giants in a real series match...not this one game fiasco... Here on the local front, the imminent firing of the Mgr did happen ...and the GM AJ Preller moves to add another patsy to his list of puppets...talking Padres ...will not bore you with the rest of the story, as it would be redundant, to say the least... I got this book yesterday ... PERIL ...and will start to get my way thru it soon... breaking today, was the news of how trump tried to sabotage the elections results ...blockbuster info that will be most everywhere in the next few hours...you forevers, you must read this...find anothe...

Boston Wins

Image
There was like euphoric sighs of the one and done 'Wild Card' game in MLB last eve ...give me a break... the 'experts' were apparently in alignment over the concept of a playoff, that featured just one game ... baseball, on that level, is a series of games ... not like in high school ...exciting?...sort of...but, what on earth made the league do this?...so much air time was given to the teams that qualified, perhaps for a month...and then POOF!, it is all over...tonight it's the Cards at the Bums...one and done, too... Boston prevailed, beating the top NY pitcher... does the home team have a huge advantage? ...sure seems like it...hey, I don't like it...how many ways can I say that?...balderdash...don't give me the crap about it extending the season too long...it already is...what's another 2 games?...c'mon...and, the Yankees are looking for a new 3B coach...ha ha... The NFL is into their 6th week...some are calling out MVP names...oh my...a little...

October Storm

Image
We don't get much of this...but when we do, it is a doozy! ...the weather people predicted rain...not the thunder and lightning show we got ...here you go, I did get a bolt to our north. ..did I ever tell ya, these are hard to snap?...at least for moi...I have seen many much better, all over the web net this am...BUT, this is mine...we did get our rain, and of course 'we needed it'...the cry out loud for Cali... Have trouble rooting for the departed Bolts, er Chargers ...however, dang it all, the QB is a Duck...Justin Herbert ... reluctantly, I pull for them ...as they won a biggee in front of a 'home' crowd of mostly Raider fans... Kman and your new bride, were you there? ...in LaLa...the Bolts should never have left here...that's done and gone...as is the stadium...ah, the Chargers won, 28-14 and pulled into a tie for 1st in the west ... Herbert was amazing, again ...interesting note out of the shock jock writer from Texas, Skip Bayless , who popped this out ...

$655 Million and Growing

Image
These numbers are mind boggling, kids...hey, good morning!...as we saunter thru this grand month of October... Power Ball is at this $655 mill + ....guess I might just get me a quick pick...we all can dream of hitting that and bask in a luxury filled lifetime...you know, just like the KFam...what would you do, if you hit it?...yup, your mind starts to wonder.... How about the matchup with the Bucs and Pats last eve? ...it was a grand show...of course, TT won it on a last minute FG...played in the driving rain, that kind of messed up the play...you know how I feel about this...a bloke who never plays, trots out and kicks the ball...and the game is decided by the kick...the NE designated bloke, missed from 56 yds and the game was the Bucs...NE will be just fine, as their new QB (Mac Jones) is a dandy and will be a star in the league...came outta 'Bama... Spacey Kacey Musgraves , a pseudo country singer star...was on SNL and sang in the nude...well, she had some boots on...what am I m...

POOF! There it Goes

Image
In a most bizarre game in the Pac 12 ...the headlines should be that the Stanford Cardinal won the game in OT over the once, highly ranked Oregon Ducks ...over and out...not so fast, my good friends...the 'bizarre' part was more that just that... highly incredible officiating, not uncommon for this crew ...almost like it was RIGGED!...I go there, because I don't think that any official has ever been charged for this in modern times... Weird was that Oregon was playing without their starting center (not weird) but also, their Offensive Coordinator was missing ...the official word was sick, but not due to virus implications (not Covid)...the resulting play calling, was odious at best... surely, by halftime... things would change...which they did...and the Ducks changed the game around and went ahead with a bit more than 2 minutes to go... The Cardinal had 95 yards to tie the game up... coupled with a brutal 'targeting' call ...which was on a 3rd and long play, tha...
